What Gig's Have You Been To?

Posted by Dave Davies on November 23, 2014 at 12:27pm in Music

Couldn't see a thread dedicated to live music.

I went to see The Specials last night at Rock City,Nottingham. Good gig small venue (about 2500). Decent atmosphere. Was almost a very short concert with Mr Hall threatening to walk off after bottles were thrown. It seems some people just can't help acting like idiots. Some well dressed folks about too. I'm always blown away when I see a women skinheads, a male skinhead so what? But a woman skinhead that takes guts.

A motley looking crew, admittedly, but these guys blew my mind last Thursday. Wilko Johson's band, were simply outstanding, each one of them treated the audience to a wonderful solo, on their respective instruments, Norman Watt-Roy on bass, was truly brilliant, I left the auditorium with a huge smile on my face.

The Groovy Cellar from Berlin perform @ Modlord, Düsseldorf. Great Art Pop in the Tradition of the TV Personalities and The Times.

Stone Foundation at a groovy little basement club that was already graced by the likes of Dizzy Gillespie and Art Blakey. What more could you wish for!?

  Need to catch those guys.

  Absolutely; saw them three times; always in top form!

  Looks excellent Kai. They are a fantastic band that I will certainly be back to see the next time they play here.

  True professionals!

  Yeah, totally agree. For us it is fantastic seeing such a band in a small intimate club, but i think they deserve to playing far bigger venues. Very talented and they have some brilliant songs in their sets.

  You're right of course, though the athmosphere was top; with a decent number of people from the Mod family turning up, too.

Last night: The Seen! (top two) are a top Psych/Mod/Garage outfit from Bonn; The Recalls (bottom) are a chilenian (via Stuttgart) garage band with a hint of '66 Beatles.
